This ETN aims to address critical mental health issues in the workplace through a comprehensive and interdisciplinary approach. The network aims to create sustainable and transnational academic collaborations to develop innovative research and educational opportunities, as well as practical solutions that enhance mental health support and interventions in various workplace settings. This will involve exploring the multifaceted aspects of health, including medical, psychological, political, and organisational factors, and fostering a participatory and inclusive approach to mental health promotion and intervention. The ETN will include teams from Comenius University in Bratislava (psychological and political factors), Uppsala University (medical and psychological factors), and Ghent University (psychological and organisational factors), ensuring a diverse and transnational collaboration. This network will leverage each institution's unique strengths and expertise to address the complex challenges of workplace mental health. Team composition is characterised by multidisciplinarity. Teams consist of experts from various disciplines, such as organisation and psychology, health care and political sciences. This diversity will ensure a holistic approach to mental health issues in the workplace. The team will comprise academics from different universities to ensure balanced representation and collaboration. The network will provide opportunities for early career researchers to engage in meaningful research and build their professional networks. The team will include professors, associate professors and PhD candidates. The team is comprised of a balanced mix of genders, encompassing both experienced and junior researchers to offer varied viewpoints and mentorship opportunities. By bringing together a diverse group of researchers and practitioners, the ETN aims to develop and implement effective strategies to promote mental health in the workplace, ultimately contributing to healthier, more productive work environments.
